Park stanowy Tahquamenon Falls

Park stanowy Tahquamenon Falls (ang. Tahquamnenon Falls State Park) znajduje się w pobliżu miejscowości Paradise w północnej części stanu Michigan (tzw. Górny Półwysep (ang. Upper Peninsula) tworząc obszar o powierzchni blisko 20 tys. hektarów wzdłuż rzeki Tahquamenon na odcinku blisko 20 kilometrów. Na obszarze parku znajdują się dwa wodospady: górny i dolny, które łącznie stanowią jeden z największych wodospadów Ameryki Północnej na wschód od doliny rzeki Missisipi. Wodospady Wodospad górny ma około 70 metrów szerokości przy spadku wód z wysokości około 4,7 m. Największy zarejestrowany przepływ wody, to 200 tysięcy litrów na sekundę. Wodospad znajduje się wśród niemal nietkniętych ludzką działalnością lasów. W okolicy nie ma większych osad ludzkich, znaczniejszych dróg ani linii przesyłowych. Turyści mogą jednak korzystać z platformy widokowej i zejścia do stóp wodospadu. Wodospad dolny znajduje się około 6 km poniżej górnego i składa się z pięciu mniejszych kaskad/porohów spadających w dół wokół naturalnej wyspy. Nie jest wprawdzie tak widowiskowy, jak wodospad górny, ale oba sprawiaja na turystach spore wrażenie. Dojście dla turystów ułatwiają pomosty widokowe i przystań dla łodzi, którymi można podpływać pod same porohy. Rzeka Tahquamenon ma swe źródła w okolicy miejscowości McMillan, 156 km od ujścia w (zatoce Whitefish Bay - Jez. Górne) , a jej dorzecze obejmuje ponad 2 500 km kw. powierzchni. Park jest otwarty przez cały rok pozwalając turystom na korzystanie z uroków dzikiej, niczym nie skażonej przyrody. Na szlakach można spotkać czarnego niedźwiedzia, jelenia, kojota, wydrę, lisa i wielkiego jeżozwierza amerykańskiego. Bobry i norki mają tu swe siedliska, podobnie jak orły bieliki, dzięcioły i wiele innych gatunków ptaków. Wobec ogromnego zasobu ryb w parku dozwolone jest również wędkowanie. Park zapewnia miejsca namiotowo-kampingowe w czterech ośrodkach zgrupowanych wokół dolnego wodospadu. Ośrodki te (90 miejsc biwakowych każde) posiadają podłączenia do sieci elektrycznej, paleniska, ujęcia wody pitje, ciepłe prysznice i toalety z bieżącą wodą. Ciekawostki Wodospady znalazły swe miejsce w poemacie jednego z największych poetów amerykańskich Henry’ego W. Longfellowa "Hiawatha" Rokrocznie, w drugiej połowie września, odbywają się wyścigi kanadyjek na odcinku 26 km od dolnego wodospadu do ujścia rzeki.

Tawas Point State Park

Tawas Point State Park is a public recreation area located on Lake Huron in Northern Michigan near the city of East Tawas, Michigan. The state park encompasses 183 acres (74 ha) at the end of a sand spit that forms Tawas Bay. It has been referred to as the "Cape Cod of the Midwest" and is a notable bird-watching site. The park is home to the Tawas Point Light, which, although it has been remodeled several times, serves as the sole representative of a true Victorian-era style station built on the Great Lakes. History The park was created after the lighthouse property was declared surplus by the United States Government. The 1960 Michigan state legislature authorized the purchase of 175 acres on Tawas Point for $29,250. Development of the park began in 1964, with the park officially opening in 1966. A beach pavilion was added to the site in 1993. The Department of Natural Resources took ownership of the lighthouse for historic monument purposes in 2001, and a year later removed the assistant lighthouse keeper's house that had been built in 1922. Birding Described as a "bird watchers' paradise," the park is located along the Lake Huron Flyway. It is said to be the most important "migrant trap" in the Saginaw Bay area. Some 300 species of migratory birds have been seen in and around the park. The park has been recognized as an important bird area by the National Audubon Society because it "[s]upports an incredible diversity and abundance of passerine migrants each spring and fall." Activities and amenities The park features a campground on Tawas Bay and water that is shallow and warm for swimming along two miles of sandy beach. The lighthouse is open seasonally for tours and climbing.

Taylor Sportsplex

Le Taylor Sportsplex, également surnommé le TSX, est une installation sportive américaine (servant principalement pour le hockey sur glace, le football américain et le soccer) située dans la ville de Taylor, dans le Michigan. L'enceinte, dotée de 1 000 places et inaugurée en 2002, sert d'enceinte à domicile à l'équipe universitaire de hockey sur glace des Eagles d'Eastern Michigan. Histoire Le stade ouvre ses portes en 2002. L'installation contient quatre arènes, où deux sont principalement utilisées pour le hockey sur glace et le patinage artistique, et les deux autres sont pour le football américain et le soccer en salle. En 2009, l'équipe de soccer indoor du Detroit Waza de Major Arena Soccer League (à l'époque PASL) s'installe au Taylor Sportsplex pour ses matchs à domicile (où il reste jusqu'en 2013). La même année, le club de football américain indoor du Detroit Thunder, qui évolue en Continental Indoor Football League (CIFL) évolue au Taylor Sportsplex lors de ses matchs à domicile. Depuis 2011, l'équipe universitaire des Eagles d'Eastern Michigan (appartenant à l'université de l'Est du Michigan) occupe l'installation pour ses matchs à domicile. En mars 2012, l'arène de hockey sur glace est évacuée en raison du fait que 80 personnes, dont 30 hockeyeurs, tombent malades avec des symptômes pseudo-grippaux. Les enquêteurs concluent à des symptômes causés par un norovirus et font fermer l'établissement pendant trois jours jusqu'à ce qu'il subisse un nettoyage professionnel. Le 3 décembre 2015, une fusillade a lieu dans le parking de l'aréna. Timothy Nelson Obeshaw, 57 ans, ouvre le feu avec un pistolet 9 mm sur la voiture de Sharon Elizabeth Watson, la blessant et tuant sa fille de 7 ans, Emma Watson Nowling. L'installation est également utilisée pour des foires commerciales, des cérémonies de remise des diplômes, des arts martiaux mixtes et d'autres événements sportifs, tels que les championnats nationaux de hockey à roulettes.

Templo Beth-El (edificio de 1921)

El antiguo templo Beth-El es un edificio histórico ubicado en 8801 Woodward Avenue (Woodward en Gladstone) en Detroit, Míchigan.​ Fue construido en 1921 e incluido en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1982.​ Arquitectura En 1921, el templo Beth El de Detroit, bajo el liderazgo del rabino Leo M. Franklin, había superado su edificio anterior en Woodward y Eliot.​ Además, muchos miembros de la congregación se habían mudado a áreas como Boston-Edison y Atkinson Avenue que no proscribían a los residentes judíos.​ La congregación obtuvo una parcela de tierra cerca de estos vecindarios en Woodward y Gladstone y contrató al congregante Albert Kahn para diseñar un nuevo templo. La piedra angular del nuevo edificio se colocó el 20 de septiembre de 1921, con la dedicación del 10 al 12 de noviembre de 1922.​ El templo diseñado por Kahn es una estructura clásica de techo plano construida con piedra caliza.​ En la fachada que da a Woodward, ocho columnas jónicas forman un enorme porche y enmarcan tres grandes pares de puertas. A lo largo de la fachada que da a Gladstone, ocho altos y estrechos están enmarcados por pilares macizos.​ Historia A principios de 1974, la congregación de Beth El se mudó nuevamente, esta vez a Bloomfield Hills, y el edificio se vendió al Lighthouse Tabernáculo, pasando a ser conocido como la Catedral del Faro. La Iglesia Bautista de Little Rock fue propietaria del edificio desde 2008 hasta 2014 y lo usó como centro comunitario.​ En 2008, fue ocupada por la Iglesia del Pacto Citadel of Faith.​ En junio de 2010, la iglesia fue ocupada por The Community Church of Christ, bajo el liderazgo del pastor R.A. Cranford. En octubre de 2013, Breakers Covenant Church International comenzó a alquilar un espacio para sus servicios de adoración bajo el liderazgo del pastor Aramis D. Hinds Sr. A partir de octubre de 2014, Breakers Covenant Church International es ahora el nuevo propietario de esta propiedad. A partir de 2017, el edificio Detroit Beth El ahora se conoce como el Bethel Community Transformation Center, propiedad de una junta directiva multirracial y multirreligiosa que planea convertir el edificio en un teatro, un centro multirreligioso y un centro comunitario.​ Véase también Anexo:Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en Detroit AnexoːEdificios de la Avenida Woodward Edificios religiosos de la Avenida Woodward Arquitectura de Detroit Referencias Enlaces externos Fotografías de los archivos del rabino Leo M.

Sinagoga nuova Beth-El di Detroit / Lighthouse Cathedral

La sinagoga nuova Beth-El di Detroit, così denominata dal nome della congregazione ebraica che la edificò nel 1921-1922, è la seconda sinagoga costruita dalla congregazione a Detroit in sostituzione della sinagoga vecchia Beth-El di Detroit (ora Teatro Bonstelle di Detroit). Nel 1974 la congregazione Beth-El si trasferì nella nuova sinagoga Beth-El di Bloomfield e da allora l'edificio è stato riadattato a chiesa (Lighthouse Cathedral) per varie congregazioni cristiane. Storia e descrizione La congregazione Beth-El, la più antica di Detroit, si era costituita nel 1850. La costruzione nel 1903 della sinagoga vecchia Beth-El di Detroit sulla Woodward Avenue fu una prima affermazione pubblica del prestigio acquisito dalla comunità agli inizi del Novecento. Nel 1921 divenne chiaro che si richiedeva un nuovo edificio, più grande per soddisfare all'incremento demografico della comunità, ma anche in una locazione diversa, più a nord sulla stessa Wooward Avenue, più vicino ai nuovi quartieri di residenza dei membri della comunità. il progetto fu affidato allo stesso Albert Kahn, che già era stato l'architetto della sinagoga vecchia. La prima pietra del nuovo edificio fu posta il 20 settembre 1921, e la cerimonia di inaugurazione si tenne il 10-12 novembre, 1922. Kahn ideò un altro edificio neoclassico, questa volta a tetto piatto, con una lunga facciata su Woodward Avenue scandita da otto alte colonne ioniche a formare un portico sul quale si aprono i tre ingressi. Nel 1974 la congregazione Beth El si trasferì di nuovo, questa volta fuori Detroit, dove fu costruita la Sinagoga Beth-El di Bloomfield. Come già accaduto alla sinagoga vecchia Beth-El di Detroit (ora Teatro Bonstelle di Detroit), così anche la sinagoga nuova fu venduta e destinata ad altro uso. Ad acquistare l'edificio fu una congregazione cristiana (Lighthouse Tabernacle) che la utilizzò come chiesa (Lighthouse Cathedral). Nel 1982 l'edificio è stato inserito nel National Register of Historic Places. Col tempo altre congregazioni cristiane si sono succedute: nel 2008 fu usata dalla Citadel of Faith Covenant Church e nel 2010 dalla Community Church of Christ. Note Bibliografia Irving I.

Sinagoga Beth-El di Bloomfield

La sinagoga Beth-El di Bloomfield Hills, così denominata dal nome della congregazione ebraica che l'ha edificata nel 1973, è la terza sinagoga monumentale costruita dalla congregazione Beth-El nell'area di Detroit dopo la sinagoga vecchia Beth-El di Detroit (ora Teatro Bonstelle di Detroit) e la sinagoga nuova Beth-El di Detroit (ora chiesa). Storia e descrizione La congregazione Beth-El, la più antica di Detroit, si era costituita nel 1850. Nella prima metà del Novecento, la congregazione aveva costruito due edifici su Woodward Avenue a Detroit: la sinagoga vecchia Beth-El di Detroit (ora Teatro Bonstelle di Detroit) nel 1903 e quindi nel 1922 la sinagoga nuova Beth-El di Detroit (ora chiesa). Sempre seguendo gli spostamenti demografici nella residenza dei suoi membri, già nei primi anni Cinquanta si cominciò a discutere di un possibile trasferimento. Nel 1966 si acquistò il terreno a Bloomfield Hills (Michigan), lungo Telegraph Avenue all'altezza di 14 Mile Road. Il progetto di costruzione della nuova sinagoga fu affidato al celebre architetto giapponese Minoru Yamasaki che ideò una gigantesca tenda in cemento ad accogliere la numerosa congregazione, con un chiaro riferimento alla biblica tenda dell'incontro nel deserto del Sinai. Nel 1973 i lavori furono completati e la congregazione Beth-El lasciò definitivamente il centro di Detroit, ed il vecchio edificio su Woodward Avenue fu venduto ad una congregazione cristiana. La nuova sinagoga di Bloomfield è oggi il centro moderno di una delle più attive congregazione riformate degli Stati Uniti. L'audace struttura, capace di ospitare più di 1800 persone a sedere, resta come uno degli esempi più significativi nell'architettura sinagogale della seconda metà del Novecento.

Temple Israel (West Bloomfield, Michigan)

Temple Israel is a Reform synagogue located in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, United States. In 2008, MLive Media Group stated that Temple Israel was the largest Jewish congregation in the United States. As of 2012, the congregation claimed that it is the largest congregation in North America, and the official database of the Union for Reform Judaism reported that the congregation has 3,383 families in its membership. History The congregation was founded in 1941 in Detroit, just 60 days before the United States entered World War II, by members who broke away from another congregation since it was insufficiently supportive of Zionism and the creation of a Jewish state. In 1949, the congregation erected an Art Moderne-style temple designed by architect William Kapp that officially opened in 1950. The congregation moved to West Bloomfield in 1980, in a building located on Walnut Lake Road that was designed by the Bloomfield Hills architectural firm of TMP Associates, Inc. The original temple in the Palmer Park area has been occupied by the Word of Power Ministry, an Evangelical Christian church, previously the Saint Paul Apostolic Temple Church, since 1989. The former synagogue building was included in the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property that is part of Detroit's Palmer Park Apartment Building Historic District, designated in 1983, with a boundary increase in 2015. Temple Israel completed additional renovations to the Sanctuary in 2017. On March 12, 2026, a shooting and vehicle-ramming attack occurred at Temple Israel. Police in West Bloomfield Township reported that shots were fired after a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Lebanon intentionally crashed his car into the building and drove down a hallway. The car contained explosives and the driver carried an assault rifle. Current leadership Temple Israel has a unique leadership model. Unlike most traditional multi-clergy synagogues, Temple Israel does not have a hierarchical rabbinical leadership structure. Each member of the clergy team is considered an equal. Rabbi Harold Loss is the longest-serving active member of the clergy team, joining Temple Israel in 1971. Rabbi Paul Yedwab joined him in 1986, and Rabbi Josh Bennett in 1995. Rabbi Marla Hornsten became the Temple's first female Rabbi in 2000, and Cantor Neil Michaels joined the clergy in 2002. Rabbi Jennifer Kaluzny and Cantor Michael Smolash came on board in the summer of 2004, with Rabbi Jennifer Lader's arrival in 2012. The executive director of Temple Israel is Jason Plotkin, who began serving the congregation in June 2022. Plotkin is a former President of the Program & Engagement Professionals of Reform Judaism, a Senior Member of the National Association of Temple Administration (NATA) and serves on the North American Board of the Union for Reform Judaism.

The Crossroads (Portage, Michigan)

The Crossroads is a shopping mall located in Portage, Michigan. The mall features 100 stores and a food court. The anchor tenants are JCPenney, Macy's, and Zap Zone XL. There is 1 vacant anchor store that was once Burlington (previously Mervyn's). The Crossroads Mall had been owned by Brookfield Properties (and predecessor General Growth Properties) from 1999 until its sale to Kohan Retail Investment Group in January 2022. History The Crossroads Mall in the City of Portage in Michigan was built in association with Dayton-Hudson Corporation, who owned the Detroit-based Hudson's chain at the time and Westcor, who built The Orchards Mall in Benton Harbor. The mall was built along South Westnedge Avenue south of Interstate 94. The mall opened along with most of its stores on July 24. 1980. At the time, it was the only two-level mall in Michigan outside Metro Detroit. The mall opened with a JCPenney and a Hudson's as its first two anchors. Tenants on opening day included Arby's, Casual Corner, Claire's, County Seat, B. Dalton, Hickory Farms, Kinney Shoes, and Consumer Value Stores. The mall at this point was relatively small and did not contain a proper food court, instead many of the malls eateries were scattered around. After 1981, the rest of the malls stores opened fully. In 1982, the mall's third anchor, Sears, was added along with an addition to the mall. On December 11, 1987, the United Artists Movies at the Crossroads, a ten screen theater opened behind the mall. In 1989, Mervyn's of California was added as the mall's third anchor. The store was a part of Mervyn's plan to expand in Michigan. In 1999, the mall was acquired by General Growth Properties, who also owned the nearby Lakeview Square Mall in Battle Creek. Hudson's was renamed Marshall Field's in 2001, and subsequently became Macy's in September 2006. Mervyn's closed in early 2006 along with the rest of the chain's Michigan stores, and Burlington Coat Factory opened its first Kalamazoo store in the space vacated by Mervyn's. On November 10, 2019, Sears closed. In 2021 Burlington Coat relocated to the former Value City Furniture at the Maple Hill Pavilion in Kalamazoo. The mall was purchased for $25 million in January 2022 by the Kohan Retail Investment Group. In September of 2024, Summit Properties USA became the new owners and managers of the mall. On February 16, 2026, Zap Zone XL opened in the former Sears. References Further reading "Crossroads Mall opens after renovations". Western Herald. October 2, 2001. External links Official website
